You can register for events using the Allen County Public Library’s events calendar. You can browse the events listed for each month. To sign up for an event, click on the event. This will lead you to the registration for that you complete. After completing the registration form you will receive a confirmation email.

You should bring a writing utensil, something to take notes on and possibly something to drink. During the event you will receive any handouts and such at that time. You should also bring your Allen County Public Library card so that your parking ticket can be validated and you will not be charged for parking.

A great place to start is to come in and talk to us! We can provide information to help you decide and prepare. Let us guide you through the process with a consultation called “501(c)3; To Be or Not to Be.”

Within Allen County, we will do workshops. Outside of Allen County, we can do workshops; however there may be a travel expense fee. If you’re interested in having a staff member do a workshop please contact us 30 days a head of time.

Books can be checked out from PCNRC. There are some books that have been marked with red dots and are not in circulation. You can also check out the book bags, or kits for adults that contain information on a particular topic.

There are approximately 3,200 nonprofit organizations which include hospitals, churches, foundations and charitable organizations. Because this number fluctuates it’s difficult to give a more accurate number of nonprofit organizations.

The PCNRC is open anytime the Allen County Public Library is open; however, the desk is staffed Monday through Friday between the hours of 9am and 5pm. If you’re in need of help after hours, the Readers’ Services’ desk is available to assist you. Also, the Foundation Directory Online is available during Main Library hours.

You can access the catalog, “Smart Cat” from the Allen County Public Library’s home page at: http://www.acpl.lib.in.us/. Once there, you can put in search terms in the box to see what books are available. You will also see different terms on the left hand side that could be used to narrow your results, or get a different list of resources. Need help? Check out the library’s “How to use Smart Cat” help page.
